Description Field experiments were conducted during kharif and rabi seasons
of 2010 and 2011 at ZARS, GKVK, UAS, Bengaluru to develop organic
production techniques for groundnut-onion sequence cropping system.
Application of EBDLM @ 25 kg N equi. ha-1 + three sprays of 3 %
panchagavya recorded significantly higher pod and haulm yield of
groundnut (2335 & 3412 kg ha-1, respectively) as compared to other
treatments which was evidenced by higher total dry mater accumulation
(51.07 g plant-1) and taller plants (46.97 cm) along with number of pods
plant-1 (47.17) and kernel yield (1775 kg ha-1).
Significantly higher bulb yield of onion (37.78 t ha-1) was recorded
with the application of EBDLM @ 125 kg N equi.ha-1 + three sprays of
3 % panchagavya as evidenced by higher bulb diameter, bulb length,
fresh weight and specific gravity of bulb (6.10, 5.52 cm, 110.09 g and
1.41 g cc-1, respectively). This was linked to taller plants and LAI (43.23
cm, & 4.28, respectively). Application of EBDLM @ 125 kg N equi.ha-1 +
three sprays of 3 % panchagavya recorded higher TSS, reducing, nonreducing,
total sugar, protein, ascorbic and pyruvic acid (16.93, 3.66,
8.66, 12.32, 1.36 %, 25.27 mg 100-1 g & 12.82 @ moles g-1, respectively)
in onion bulbs. Significantly higher uptake (174.3, 27.2, 110.0 & 27.2
kg ha-1, respectively), availability (355.1, 78.3, 190.8 & 36.3 kg ha-1,
respectively) of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur and also
net return & B:C ratio (` 4,26,557 ha-1 & 4.13, respectively) were
recorded with EBDLM @ 25 (groundnut) / 125 (onion) kg N equi.ha-1 +
three sprays of 3 % panchagavya in groundnut-onion cropping sequence.
